The All Progressives Congress (APC) has tightened its hold on the FCT as Daniel Nuhu emerged winner of the Kwali Area Council chairmanship election in emphatic fashion.
Nuhu polled 16,656 votes to comfortably defeat his closest rival, Haruna Pai of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP), who garnered 8,467 votes.
The Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) announced the result at the council’s final collation centre on Sunday morning, confirming the APC candidate as duly elected.
Saturday’s poll was conducted across all ten wards in Kwali, with APC supporters erupting in celebration after the declaration.
With the Kwali triumph, APC has now secured three of the four area councils declared so far in the FCT elections, further strengthening its dominance in the territory.
